Rain has been hitting Ouaga hard, with roads looking like lakes for some time after each storm. Greenery is growing like wild, and more leaks have turned up in my house.
Since the last leak took 2 months to ‘fix’ (water still puddles on the floor under the window in question) and many phone calls and messages to the house-owner I’ve gotten a bit discouraged and may just leave it to the SIM office to try to chase him up. The guard recommended I get it fixed before the “big rains” of August. What does he think these have been then? Sunshowers?
Before some of the bigger storms there’s a big blow, and if there’s been a few dry days it manages to get all the dust and rubbish into the air. If you want a glimpse you could download the short video made from IMS balconies.
Another video file will show you how to prepare “tô”, the staple corn dough dish here.
